not really an upgrade, but working with what i got
my friend got a crap pc and not even dual core, so he need to get a new one
on 350$ budget!!
my plan is to get psu, case and extra ram later, maybe xfire
and work with 80gb hdd for now

mb(GA-MA790GPT)
cpu (AMD Athlon II X2 245
gpu (hd 4850) not sure what model yet

what do u think
is cpu good to oc?
and can i save on mb?

he want to game but not high on demand
as good as gets with such a budget
future upgrade is a possibility

thx

thatll save u a couple dollars on what u have listed. i say the 240 over the 245, cuz u overclock it to 3.4 to 3.6 which is over stock of the 245. why pay more when u can get it there for less. theres a thread too on overclocking that chip. the AVERAGE is 3.4-3.6 so maybe more but maybe less
